At the heart of the 2009 Hyosung GT 650R sport motorcycle, Hyosung relies on a 674 cc (41.1 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 79 HP (57.7 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 117.2 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the GT 650R measures 208 kg (459 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.38 HP/kg (2.63 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,435 mm (56.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 17.03-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
